# CodeSnack IDE vs RemoteIDE

The clearest difference is rating: RemoteIDE at 5.0 against CodeSnack IDE's 4.4. CodeSnack IDE's advantage is ratings volume (1.6K vs 2) and chart position (#88 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. CodeSnack IDE sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and RemoteIDE sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

RemoteIDE holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CodeSnack IDE has 1.6K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
